There is an old style in a hedge on William Gorey's land in Coolegegan and under it there is a big stone. There is a pass from Coolegegan over this style to a road known locally as "The Little Road." The old people say that the dead coach used to pass over this stone. They used to pass our house. All the people used to hear the noise of the horses' feet but they never saw the horses going by.
